With Windows 10, Windows became a service. It is currently a "buy once and use forever" service application. What we dread is the day when that switches and they make us start paying a subscription fee to get updates.
Netflix app was... problematic... 4K content made it buggy. Oddly enough I think it's just a frontend to IE or Edge though. Maybe it's better now. I could always give it a shot.
start phasing out comments in general. While they increase "engagement", they're so incredibly useless that I definitely wouldn't miss them
Really? Never? You've never seen useful information relevant to a video in the comments, or had an enlightening conversation in comments? Maybe the problem is you're only watching trash videos and nothing educational or intellectual. Your idea is preposterous.
Well, there's a couple of advantages to the 1660ti over the 1070 (which I also have). One is better framerates at resolutions higher than 1080p (and I'm at 1440), and then there's lower power consumption. Part of me wants to upgrade for those two facts alone. Selling my 1070 and getting one of these would make the 1660ti only come out to about $80, so it's worth considering.

Cruel and unusual punishment is carried out in American jails on a daily basis. I wish prison reform was a bigger point of focus for people.

I use Edge to play Netflix 4K videos. I wonder if this change breaks that capability.

Businesses wih critical workloads that can’t be rebooted all he time for “updates”

How exactly does "ji32k7au4a83" translates to english? Is it base64-encoded or something?

Someone's gotta be there to tell them to turn it off and turn it back on again.

Pack it up and go home, everybody else. Google is here to dominate yet another market.
Now I can claim moral superiority because I'm an mp3 downloader instead of a streamer. Nice.
Weed? Doesn't weed do this?
Is there anything dumber in this world (that are still recognisable human) than socialists?
I would say capitalists, but they are not still recognisable as humans. Darn.

Now let's find a sane judge who will stand with the constitution and declare Civil Asset Forfeiture to be unconstitutional as it most certainly is.

So you never learned how to use the Start menu in Win8/Win10. Got it. Works just fine for me, but I learned how to use it to the fullest.
They're setting a plan in motion that will end physical game purchases entirely and move consumers to 100% downloaded/streamed content.
